Universally recognised as the hardest subject in Queensland’s High School curriculum, succeeding in Maths C is no easy feat. Forget about succeeding, even surviving at the start might seem impossible. I still remember the start of Year 11 Maths C.

By following the 7 steps to happiness outlined below, succeeding in Maths C just became much easier. Following these strict principles myself landed me a VHA by the end of Year 12, and there’s no reason you can’t achieve the same too.
